Stygian Witches – The Stygian Witches
What are the Stygian Witches?
The Stygian Witches are called the Graeae, the grey witches, the grey sisters, the three crone sisters and more. They are said to have 
shared one eye and one tooth. The Stygian Witches were the daughters, born as triplets, to both Ceto and Phorcyus.
They are said to have been beautiful despite their deformities, although are often now depicted as hideous and ugly. The Stygian Witches belong to a group of gods called, Phorcydeus, this group consisted of only sea based and earth based realms. There isn’t a lot of information online about the Stygian witches, but you can find more information by using the search bar on this website. Some people include the Stygian witches into their modern rituals but I do not because there isn’t a precise and accurate definition of the sisters and the magick they casted.

The sisters are interesting and intriguing, Modern day witches even hold the Stygian Witches as their totem or goddess deity. Because Wicca is such an individualized path these neo-stygian witches are welcomed into the pagan community. It is not the type of witchcraft I am familiar with but I am interested none the less.
